Abstract:Radar data can be of significant utility in investigating characteristics of rainfall events that cannot be studied with rain gauges alone. The recent establishment of a long‐term, quality‐controlled data set covering most of the radars on the Australian continent enables a deeper characterization of rainfall, including heavy rainfall events. This study develops a methodology to identify and characterize rainfall events from radar data and tests its utility by applying it to the regions surrounding the major c… Show more
